Program/Degree Counseling (MA) - Rehabilitation & Mental Health Emphasis Program Description As of June 1, 2022, the M.A. Counseling-Rehabilitation & Mental Health specialization is seeking approval from the University of Arizona Office of Curricular Affairs to create two separate degree plans within the M.A. Counseling-Rehabilitation & Mental Health specialization to align with requirements from our accrediting body, CACREP (Council for the Accreditation Counseling and Related Educational Programs). Future students may be asked to select a specialization in either rehabilitation or mental health; however, for now, we invite students interested in either or both programs to apply to the “Rehabilitation and Mental Health” specialization.
